Lock status quo when the company really needs to attract new hires, and then hold FO pay rates hostage for the benefit of the rest of the group.
Possible risk that they might call the bluff and shrink rather than pony up.
I was just going to say something to this effect. This is what I’ve been telling you guys for a long time. There is leverage to be had right now laying on the table free for you guys to seize it. But instead you guys agree to a 5 year low ball pay package.
Anyway, shrinkage is inevitable. Skywest has 53 aircraft on pro-rate agreements that only need 30-120 days notice of termination. That’s 600 pilot cushion.
